With D60 and at ISO 1000 with measured black level
It seems like the problem is in Rawspeed at this part
I didn’t think D60 had optical black area, but indeed it has. I inspected it and it is a little bit different from the other Canon cameras I have seen. From top it is pitch black 7 px down. Then grey 5 px down. Unusable in this case for black level.
From left there is a different area 12 px deep, and after that there is, what I think, the optical black area to use. Because of the first 12 px I think I have gotten the wrong black levels from Hraw above.
I changed in my local Rawspeed xml file to

Now with the new corrected values in Rawspeed it gives me
I loaded D60 ISO 1000 in Canon Digital Photo Professional 4 and the colours look a little bit off or over saturated in the shadows even with the neutral profile. Perhaps Canon Digital Photo Professional 4 only uses the black levels from Exif and not measure from the optical black area?
For D30, the optical black area are 6 px from top and 48 px from left. I changed in Rawspeed to
For 1Ds at ISO 100 I got:
